The Andromeda galaxy is a spiral galaxy like our own; this is what the Milky Way would look like if we could see it from the outside. The picture you are looking at contains several hundred BILLION stars. Andromeda is the nearest spiral galaxy to our own, at a distance of 3 million light years. (So this picture is 2 million years old!) It's the furthest thing you can see with the naked eye.
